As primates, we are sight-brained and are more dependent on visual information than on our sense of smell. Furthermore, as humans, we are strongly dependent on cultural adaptations.

• How much of human culture is related to primate visual dependence? 
• Could this be the source of adages such as: "don't judge a book by its cover" and "looks can be deceiving"? 
• Why does your instructor spend so much time incorporating visuals into lectures, the course website, posting activities, etc.?
